"I am like a coolie who works for wages from a producer. I don't have any right to express my personal opinion in films," says Ajith, who is eagerly expecting the release of his 50th movie 'Mankatha'. "So I have made a conscious decision not to mouth any unnecessary punch dialogues in my forthcoming films. The words that come from my mouth would be those of the character I play and not mine," clarifies the 'Thala'.

Expressing confidence that the film would do well at the box-office, he says, "Director Venkat Prabhu is the best director I have ever worked with. He knows the pulse of the audience well. He has shaped up 'Mankatha' in an interesting way that would keep the audience glued to their seats."

Produced by Dhayanidhi Alagiri's Cloud Nine Movies, 'Mankatha' also has Arjun, Trisha, Anjali, Lakshmi Rai, Andrea Jeremiah, Premgi Amaran and Vaibhav Reddy in important roles. The music is by Yuvanshankar Raja.
